Hands and Hearts.

The Boston journal tells the follow
ing: AS one of the morning trains ran
into the Boston & Albany Railroad
Station one of the cold mornings re-
Gently. when the thermometer regis
tered 10 degrees below zero, poor
young fellow leaning on acrutch with
out mittens or overcoat and with a
bundle under his arm, alighted and
hobbled through the station, occasion
ally altering his bundle to blow on his
hands OF rub his ears to keep them
from being frozen. Directly after him
walked young gentleman enveloped
in fur coat with it's great collar
turned up around his ears, seal cap
and thick gloves, making him look the
picture of warmth. As the crowd
came out to Beech street the fur coat
young man was seen to pull off his
gloves, and putting them on to the
hands OF the young cripple he strobe
hastily up the street without word.
Astonishment was. pictured on the Grip
pies face, and tears came into his eyes
as he turned around to thank the giver,
but he was lost to sight in the rapidly
moving crowd.

Skye Marriages.

A marriage is an occasion of great
festivity in Skye. The bridegroom
must furnish his bride with new dress
and the bridesmaid with one exactly
similar, beside giving presents to other
members of the family. A copious
supply of whisky is provided, and
it is considered very discreditable
if the supply proves insufficient.
The married crofters have numer-
Gus families, and not long ago
one good matron at Waternish present
ed her husband with three at a birth,
for which she received the usual royal
bounty. A common number is from
eight to ten, and some have as many
as fifteen. Few children die, as they
are wonderfully free from epidemics
common to young people. Some
children look fresh and rosy, while
others are more sickly; but generally
grow rapidly after the age of fourteen,
turning out strong and healthy men
and women. After entering on the
cares of family the woman partially
lose their beauty; but still when dress
ed, as they sometimes are, in taste
full style, they look well and live to
good old age.

Spanked by Statute.

1t is a bad thing for growing boys,
or boys who ought to be giving their
energies to growing, to use tobacco;
but they are not to be spanked by
statute into adopting the high and
lofty dogmas of the estimable George
Trask, OF the Massachusetts, legisla-
ture. II the Massachusetts, people
want to stop boys from using tobacco,
they should begin by stopping the men.
Boys smoke and chew-more the
pity--because their elders do. The to-
bacco habit is, in their view, an initia-
ton into manhood, putting on of the
virile toga or tall coat before the due
time. Common-sense persuasion by
parents may pluck a few of these
brands from tobacco burning, but boys
will continue to be boys, even if Massa-
chusetts Legislatures should become a
great deal wiser than they have ever
been suspected of being.

Remarkable Mechanism.

In 1888 collection of most wonder
full automatic was made in London for
the Emperor of China. Among them
was the life size figure of young lady
who played tunes upon a spinnet; an
other that wrote lines with the beauty
of copperplate; while surprising all
ingenuity was the figure of magician
with tiny wand in his hand. It was
mounted upon small, movable
frame, which could be wheeled about
at, the pleasure of a spectator, so that
there was no place for confederate
to conceal himself. On putting into an
orfice in the frame any one of Che num-
Gus metallic cards which lay about with
questions inscribed on them, the figure,
after making you bow, struck with
his rod a little door, which wasinstant-
lY opened, and there was an answer
printed on another card. The reply
given was always strictly appropriate
to the question on the card, and was
not of a mere general character, like
the answers on conversation cards.

Golden Teeth.

"Did you ever think that all the

are about 1900 dentists in the United
States, and they pack into the teeth of
the American people a ton of pure gold
everv year l guess about five times
that weight of less precious metal,
such as tin, silver and platinum, 20 the
same way. Now these metals are
worth $l,00O,OO0, andin the twenty
first century all the coin in the United
States will be buried in the grave
yards. .
'Is the decay of teeth increasing or
diminishing among the people of this
country?''
'Oh, increasing. Two hundred
years ago one person in five had sound
teeth. A hundred years ago, but one
person in twenty-five had perfect teeth,
and in the nineteenth century, the age
of reform, our latest statistics show
that but one person in eighty has per-
ectly sound teeth.

A correspondent of the Chicago
